Dr Matt Hislop, Sport and Exercise Medicine Physician discusses the diagnosis of Popliteal Artery Entrapment Syndrome (PAES). Unfortunately, there can be a delay in diagnosis of PAES and for the suffering athlete, it can be very frustrating and limiting in terms of their running ability.

Dr Matt has a special interest in exertion of leg pain, having published research on chronic exertional compartment syndrome and being one of the few practitioners in southeast Queensland who performs compartment pressure studies. Dr Hislop is involved in research in the management of Popliteal Artery Entrapment Syndrome and has co-authored several chapters in Brukner & Khan's Clinical Sports Medicine on this topic.

Dr Matt has been a Practicing Consultant Sport and Exercise Medicine Physician for the past 17 years with coverage including the Chief Medical Officer for the Brisbane Broncos NRL, the Chief Medical Officer for the Queensland State of Origin Rugby League, the Brisbane International Tennis Tournament and for Paddle Australia Flatwater Kayak and Canoeing along with being a team physician with the Australian Olympic team.

Emma Jeffcoat is an Australian Olympic Triathlete who made her debut at the 2021 Tokyo Olympic Games.

In this episode Emma discusses the poignant issue of comments that can destroy athletes and candidly shares some of the commentary that she's received throughout her developing triathlon career and how that's affected her over the years psychologically, health wise and performance wise.

What's so great about Emma's story is how she is going from strength to strength in showing those critics that when it comes to performance, ill-informed commentary and beliefs around body composition have no place.

Jenny Valentish, Author and Journalist, has just released a new book "Everything Harder than Everyone Else", why some of us push our bodies to extremes.

Jenny is the author of the acclaimed Woman of Substances, a regular contributor to The Sydney Morning Herald and the Saturday Paper and a former Editor of Timeout Melbourne, and Triple J's J Mag.

When Jenny wrote her book about addiction, she noticed that people who treated drug taking like an Olympic sport would often hurl themselves into a pursuit such as a marathon or ultra-marathon upon getting sober. What stayed constant was the need to push their boundaries.

The book follows people doing the things that most people couldn't, wouldn't or shouldn't. The interviewees in Jenny's book lead Jenny on a journey through psychology, endurance and the power of obsession, revealing what we can learn about the human condition.

I'd call this a handbook into analysing why you do what you do as an endurance athlete.
